The purpose of this study is to know how teacher performance management as a continuous performance process to equalize individual teacher goals and educational institutions also teacher performance series starting from the planning, implementation and evaluation phase which are oriented to minimum work standards in order to obtain income eligibility, benefits, and promotion or rank only which resulting in the performance of teachers dwelling on matters of an administrative nature and setting aside performance processes that produce output and outcome according to the objectives of educational institutions. This research used a qualitative research design by concerning to a phenomenon approach. Data collection techniques used by some steps such as observation, interviews and documentation. Data analysis included single site analysis and cross-site analysis with data analysis techniques; data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. This research produced four main findings among others; first, in pre-cycle stage with preparation for assessment and creating a teacher performance assessment team; second, the phase of planning with the phase of defining, discussing roles, responsibilities, and measurable expectations; third, the phase of coaching with the phase of observation, monitoring, support, feedback, and appreciation; the four phase of the teacher performance management cycle are performance evaluations.

The purpose of this article is to describe the reported goals of teachers participating in professional development related to their efforts to consider multiple representations in their teaching. Through analysis of monthly written reflections and group discussion, we describe 3 teacher dilemmas that emerged related to their efforts to consider multiple representations in their teaching: (a) equitable practices when particular representations result in differential success, (b) a teacher's need to balance exposure and choice, and (c) a potential dilemma related to conflicts between competing goals. We provide suggestions of how mathematics educators might use these findings to support future professional development efforts.

Evaluating classroom management is more than determining whether or not a teacher keeps students quiet and on task. It means assessing teacher-student relations, classroom organi zation and planning, student involvement, discipline, teacher style, and teacher goals, and then helping the teacher improve his or her classroom management skills.

Abstract Introduction For several decades, educational experts have promoted reflection as essential to professional development. In the medical setting, collaborative reflection has gained significant importance across the curriculum. Collaborative reflection has a unique edge over individual reflection, but many medical teachers find facilitating group reflection sessions challenging and there is little documentation about the didactics of teaching in such collaborative reflection settings. To address this knowledge gap, we aim to capture the professional knowledge base for facilitating collaborative reflection by analyzing the formal and perceived goals and strategies of this practice. Methods The professional knowledge base consists of formal curricular materials as well as individual teacher expertise. Using Template Analysis, we analyzed the goals and strategies of collaborative reflection reported in institutional training documents and video-stimulated interviews with individual teachers across all Dutch general practitioner training institutes. Results The analysis resulted in a highly diverse overview of educational goals for residents during the sessions, teacher goals that contribute to those educational goals, and a myriad of situation-specific teacher strategies to accomplish both types of goals. Teachers reported that the main educational goal was for residents to learn and develop and that the teachers’ main goal was to facilitate learning and development by ensuring everyone’s participation in reflection. Key teacher strategies to that end were to manage participation, to ensure a safe learning environment, and to create conditions for learning. Discussion The variety of strategies and goals that constitute the professional knowledge base for facilitating collaborative reflection in postgraduate medical education shows how diverse and situation-dependent such facilitation can be. Our analysis identifies a repertoire of tools that both novice and experienced teachers can use to develop their professional skill in facilitating collaborative reflection.
